About

Colonial Palms Motor Inn is a classic case of location over luxury. Guests love the proximity to the marina and the pool area, which is a great spot to chill. But, the rooms are showing their age and cleanliness is a frequent complaint. Service is a mixed bag; some find the staff lovely, while others have had run-ins with grumpy management. It's a budget-friendly spot, but don't expect a five-star experience.
